Republicans, fearing midterm disaster, seek course correction

12. beware, the right-wing controls the message

it's easy for those of us who pay attention all the time to see right through this.

it's obviously a partisan republican tactic to suddenly try to appear bipartisan and reasonable in an election year after taking hyper-partisanship and unreasonableness to a whole new level.

this is the guy who refused to even hold a hearing for obama's supreme court nominee.

this is the guy who went nuclear on supreme court nominees to ram through gorsuch, bypassing a democratic filibuster.

this is the guy who cut out any participation of democrats, using reconcilation rules and closed-door meetings, for the most horrid tax heist in history.


that said, the average voter is more easily swayed by the latest narrative of the m$m, and if they're all talking about bipartisanship during election season, and/or democratic obstructionism, that could very well help republicans.

it's easy to laugh at this and/or be disgusted, but we have to take this tactic seriously.
